From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
From Screwed:
"Hartmann speaks with the straight talking clarity and brilliance of a modern day Tom Paine as he exposes the intentional and systematic destruction of America’s middle class by an alliance of political con artists and outlines a program to restore it. This is Hartmann at his best. Essential reading for those interested in restoring the institution that made America the envy of the world."
The moron never even made it to the main continent. Which is why its named after Amerigo Vespucci.
Hi Thom,
I am just 1 in the crowd of people who love what you say, and I thank you for educating me. I lost my job of 25 years working with the mentally ill. Now three months past being a 99er. Now on food stamps. It is kind of funny to me that if you are on unemployment, you make too much money to qualify for food stamps. I don't have a Masters or Marriage Family Therapist License so do not qualify for any mental health jobs despite 25 years experience.. trying to start my own business doing wood work and stained glass but in NO WAY would I be eligible for a loan. Not even a small loan for this: www.artisanwoodandglass.com if you have a spare moment to take a look. I am fortunate to have a loving girlfriend who helps me out...
That is just my 2 cents.. Thank you again for your articulate education.. I would like to read one of your books and wondering if you can recommend one. I know you are very busy so if you can't then I will just google reviews and choose one that would be most applicable for my situation... How funny.. I am still listening to your show and you just mentioned 'STAR' wars, my dad worked on that many years ago @ Rockadine/Rockwell...
Anyway, sorry for babbling...if you get a spare moment to recommend a book of yours richsapf@gmail.com
Namaste Thom,

I can empathize with you although I am not in your unfortunate position at this time, but I did lose a longtime job which was a culmination of mergers due to the trucking deregulation of the late 1970's, 1978 I think. I found myself in my mid 50's having to start over at 1/2 the pay I was used to. I almost lost my house, but again It was at least at a time when real estate was doing good in the 1990's. I did look at your website and would recommend that you put a facebook, twitter, etc. links on it so that people can easily recommend it. If it's not possible, since I have no idea how to do that myself, I wish you the best of luck. Welcome to the new world, although since you signed off with namaste, I would suspect that you know that better times are coming.
OK, Rich. I copied your website link and put it out on face book with a nice note to support one of the 99%.
Namaste, Judy
